KOLBE HONORED AT ANS DINNER GALA

Dave Kellogg asked about last week's annual dinner
gala honoring George Kolbe at the American
Numismatic Society.

He writes: "We all know George from his fine numismatic
literature sales and auctions as well as his contributions to
The E-sylum. Perhaps known to only those people
interested in ancient coins and books about them is
George's monthly contribution to the Celator, a journal of
ancient and medieval coinage. For many years George
has written an article entitled "Profiles in Numismatics"
which describes past scholars whose contributions to
the subject have formed the body of knowledge from
which we all benefit today. George has also been an
active supporter of the ANS Library. It is probably
due to his achievements in the latter activity that
prompted his deserving honor last week.

(The ANS offered a suggestion for those unable to attend
the dinner but nevertheless wishing to support George;
a tax-deductible contribution could be made to the ANS
in honor of Mr. George F. Kolbe. Their address is 96
Fulton Street, New York, NY 10038.)"

[Congratulations, George. Take a bow. Were I
located closer to New York I may have been able to
attend. Can any of our readers report on the event?
